It's simply a company Toyota bought out and branded it to suit the higher end of the market.

My MS wheel ha a far better feel, is better designed and works a whole bunch better in a CONSOLE game ported to the pc.
Considering GRID is a CONSOLE game, yes it will be better.

Higher end of the market???
The cars I refer to (Toyata Soarer and Lexus SC400) are identical in everyway (US cars dont have TV's).
So explain to me, how is this appealing to the "higher end" of the market if the cars are the same, except for the bigger US price tag??

Lexus and Toyotas aren't the same here. I can't comment on the Yank market.

All I know is Lexus is to Toyota what MG was to Rover.
